Roaring Lambs

Christians should lead a fully intergrated life
We must put our own desires, goals, motives, and plans aside in favor of Gods direction.
Devote yourself to prayer- than act
The current church is almost a nonentity when it comes to shaping culture
If we want to point someone to the Savior I need to make sure my professional behavior is stellar.
Our world instead of running from it we need to rush into it. And instead of just hanging around the fringes of our culture we need to be right smack dab in the middle of it
We have a Shepard we can trust fully, so we really ought to be out there on the front lines of battle for the cause of the gospel. Be the salt of society.
The salt Jesus has in mind is stinging, biting, cleansing, and preserving and is anything but dull, anything but tame. To be the kind of salt Jesus spoke about is to be on the cutting edge, in the fray, at the forefront of the battle.
Once we accept Him into our lives we are automatically the salt of the earth.
Number one way to be the salt- teach His relevance, to demonstrate His relevance, and to live His relevance in every part of our lives.
Salt retards spoilage it doesnt prevent it, It slows decay , it doesnt stop it
When Christians carp,criticize, and complain but offer no alternatives, the world rolls its eyes.
We need to act as a purifying agent to hinder the spread of evil. Best way to stop evil is to replace it with something good

write letters to the editor, correct errors
Be a presence in american public life
know we can make a difference, we must be deliberate about it

watch good programs
help children make good choices
express your opinion
dont waste money on boycotting--proclaim dont protest
pray pray pray
